standards and asset
lifecycles.
I have analyzed that the various processes of negotiation interaction generally
showcase the different types of tactical logic as well as strategic logic. According
to the present approach, it is found that the tactical logic mainly assists in
showcasing that tactical logic assists in focussing on the various emotion-based
criteria and emotion which further includes appropriate risk assessment. In
addition to this, it is analyzed that the concept of strategic logic mainly focusses
on the desire that helps in achieving the customers focus as well as proper cost
advantage. In addition to this, it is found that, it generally focuses on the
concept which further reflects on lack of proper choice.
I have analyzed that the hard features of the government are helpful in
impacting the various approaches of negotiation-based interaction procedure.

as project complexity. Therefore, it is very much important for developing
proper strategies that are helpful in executing the entire work of the project

Johari-Oriented Cynefin Typology is found to be an important model that are
very much beneficial for commercial negotiation as well as for the purpose of
communication. This particular model is used within the project for properly
discussing the impact that is mainly associated with the complexity of the
project.

negotiation related roles. It is found that the project manager generally takes

methods of
identifying and
reconciling
inconsistent and
conflicting objectives

relationships and
communication with
key stakeholders.
Communication is found as one of key of project management. In order to
make a project successful, it is quite important to communicate properly with
the project stakeholders such that work that is associated with the project can
be successfully executed. It is found that the non-verbal related communication
generally plays an important role within effective negotiation. In addition to this,
it is identified that with the help of appropriate communication, commercial
contracts can be used effectively within the entire project.
It is analyzed that the channel tunnel that is used within the project is quite
helpful in providing proper information that is associated with negotiation.
Moreover, it is found that the information about proper as well as successful
negotiation is quite beneficial for proper outcomes.
Moreover, I have identified that the situation that is associated with QLD health

generally needed. Moreover, it is considered to be important for answering the
QH based payroll as well as negotiation and conflict which generally can change
the ideas in context to commercial negotiation.
